Its been said soybeans are made during the month of August. Mayville, North Dakota farmer Brent Kohls had a couple nice August rains that gave his beans a boost. “The corn also seemed to root in and benefit from that late-season moisture,” said Kohls. “It’s just been a long time without rain now so we’re just keeping an eye on the corn and trying to prioritize harvest to determine what fields might have more stalk integrity problems to go get first.” The weather has pushed drydown in the corn. “Obviously, with the heat and the wind we’ve had, the moisture levels have certainly come down.” Kohls had some corn that dropped six points in moisture over the course of one week.
